Hi, welcome to OSM. This is a global community, based on remote mapping as well as on local contributions. To help local people review your edits, it is best if you group them geographically. Remember to "SAVE" all your edits before you start looking at a different area.
Here you edited in Roanoke, USA and in Itapaci, Brazil, but your "bounding box" touched all that is between the two areas, in particular East Panamá, where I usually greet new mappers.

hi, are you remote mapping, or can you provide local information? thank you for your contributions in both cases!

hola, bienvenido/a a OSM en Panamá! are you currently in the area? maybe you have time to spare, "ojalá". many shop names in Panama need a spell check, or resolve abbreviations.

(the mining vein I think I see, but I don't dare add to the database is 1.4km to the East of that changeset, not included in the area.)

hi, I was browsing the area, and I saw this residential area at the border with Eritrea. Way: 898547510. I do not see anything there resembling a settlement!

hi. these are most unusual quarries given my experience. what is it? you're interested, hopefully, in helping with industrial=mine ?

hola alain2003, ik zie je Way: 884750563, in de buurt van een landuse→industrial→mine en vermoed dat het afvalwater uit de mijn is. wie weet! ciao, laat van je horen.

hola Nesim, welcome to Panamá! please don't forget to add a meaningful comment to your changesets, something as simple as "added Turkish name to elements".
(Lütfen değişiklik kümelerinize anlamlı bir yorum eklemeyi unutmayın, "added Turkish name to elements" kadar basit bir şey.)
happy mapping further!

can you check my statement only limited to South America? thank you, from hand-held device.

78172369 almost 4 years ago

I mention South America because I'm living there and I know that English is a rather useless language in the area. the "Esperanto" changes to the 'name' for this node[place=continent] have been of three types: 1) changing name to Esperanto; 2) removing name; 3) changing name to bilingual Spanish-Portuguese. your group kept restoring option 0) name in English. I'll try to check with the community, if there's any prevailing opinion.

78172369 almost 4 years ago

has in the meanwhile any position been taken? Europe has no 'name', while 'name' for Southern America is in a language hardly spoken in the area.

(oh, I had not noticed you are a Mapbox employee. other companies clearly mark all their corporate changesets with a hashtag, even Apple does that!)

115782657 almost 4 years ago

you're not in the area, are you? it would be so nice to have local information, to clear up all these quite doubtful names and numbers in the whole area! like 75-B-Este (what's the "B"?); or 71-Este-Bis (why "Bis"?) next to a 65-A-Este (why "A" and where's the ones between 65 and 71?) or that short "91-I" segment. all very puzzling to me.

seen, thank you! myself, I enjoy mapping nature, and rural villages … the aerial pictures for this area are stunning! ciao, :-) MF.

"tal cual indica el plano de urbanización", es un buen punto de arranque. sin embargo, así como cuando una placa indica "Ave J. Arosemena" nosotros escribimos name="Avenida Justo Arosemena", igualmente creo que deberíamos interpretar estas "A/a/ª" y limitar el uso de las letras en la base de datos al caso de las calles A/B/C etc, dejando las que leemos primera, segunda, tercera etc.
faltando un acuerdo municipal, por lo menos quitamos espacio a la confusión dentro de OSM. es lo que sugiero debatir en el foro.

thanks, I'm not used to the iD editor, I obviously keep overlooking the thick dots telling me that a node is not connected.

39039849 almost 4 years ago

hi. still interested in this area? there's newer aerial pictures, and I see one of your rivers flowing into a very green area (compared to the rest). do you wish to help mapping it? I would guess it to be an intermittent wetland, but I've never seen this area in real life. or is it subterranean rivers? do you know whether the vegetation is perennial, or just there dormant until there's any humidity?

Hi and Welcome to Panama/OSM!
please if it's not interfering with you enjoying the place, can you provide —as much as possible— names and opening_times of whatever you happen to see along your travelling? I see you're using iOS, for which I don't have software hints ;-)
